The world of eldercare planning is complex; Medicare, Medicaid, continuum of care for older adults, etc. is a maze of paperwork and questions, and most people facing it have trouble navigating the maze alone. Perhaps you have already had to do this yourself.
Parkside would like to provide free training to lay people, who could then give basic guidance to others in the congregation and connect them with helpful resources.
